Thank you for submitting the summaries of your extensive research and your wonderful concept sketches.
Per our conversation with Lyn today, the next steps are listed below.
This weekend we will each review and think about the following:
- What problem are we trying to solve?
- What factors will our solution address? List all the factors including factors related to:
- driver - psychological and physical factors
- pedestrian - psychological and physical factors
- structural considerations - what is there now?
- existing "safety net" - i.e. laws, technology (i.e. headlights) - why are they inadequate in dealing with our problem?
- directions - what is already taking place - i.e. technology that is relevant to our problem/solution
On Monday at 12 am (Germany)/6 pm (US) we will have a brief Skype conference to finalize the problem we want to solve and the list of factors we will address.
Chelsea will report our results to Lyn on Tuesday.
By Friday we should have 5-10 concepts that we can present to Lyn. These can be new concepts; the concepts we already presented; or a combination of concepts. However, concepts must address the problem and our list of factors. The concepts should also fill a gap (meet a need that's not currently met). [Perhaps we could each do 1 or 2 concepts and Chelsea and I will print them for Lyn to review on Friday. We can discuss how we will deal with the concepts on Monday.]
Thanks again, everyone.
Have a good weekend and keep up the good work.
